03:16 lobbes http://blog.lobbesblog.com/2018/10/auctionbot-is-live/ << at the suggestion of a few people, I've updated the bot help page to be a little more helpful. Command explanations are a little meatier and an additional likbez added to the end.

07:26 spyked http://btcbase.org/log/2018-12-08#1879046 <-- hm. feedbot sends rss entries that aren't previously in the db, so it'll spam on the first !1subscribe. so in this case it's better to send me a list of the feeds and I'll add them manually.
07:26 a111 Logged on 2018-12-08 01:18 lobbes: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-12-07#1878913 << this may work; there's only ~5 feeds iirc. Question is: would using the !1subscribe method flood the channel with old blog posts, or would it just grab the new ones?
07:27 spyked this is a good point tho: the spam-on-first-subscription behaviour sounds like bug and I'll add in the hopper for fixing.

10:43 mircea_popescu spyked not so much a bug, traditional behaviour on adding ~new~ feeds, because people generally want to see a few articles from a new source. however, "old" feeds so to speak don't need it. so maybe have just a knob for you, doesn'teven need to be exposed to general public, to make the distinction between normal (hey, new guy added) and exceptional (importing other bot's feeds) regimes.

One of the large group of everyday nitwits that wandered into Bitcoin early on enough so as to end up with a much larger momentary fortune than their limited brainpower could support. After squandering it through the usual means, they prefer to pretend their funciar stupidity is someone else's fault..

10:50 mircea_popescu gotta be shaken out of the space, what. these morons don't belong "in crypto" anymore than they belong in #trilema. hence http://trilema.com/2016/thats-right-time-to-move-on-please-do-bitcoin-is-really-not-for-you/#selection-139.2-143.30
10:52 mircea_popescu " I was trying to have to pay taxes as far away as possible. So, I decided to wait till New Year's Eve and started liquidating my crypto on January 1st" jesus.
10:52 BingoBoingo Derps are going to herp
10:52 mircea_popescu see, my fetlife morons are WAY THE FUCK SMARTER, in their bovine idiocy & petriferous lassitude, than these utter fucktards.
10:52 mircea_popescu #KillTheMales
10:55 mircea_popescu i tell you truthfully, no case of femtarded "oh i make choices, have oppinions blablabla" out of thousands in the same interval infuriate nearly anywhere near the level of a zx2c4 or a l0de or whatever other such example.
10:56 mircea_popescu there's about ten thousand fucking miles between http://btcbase.org/log/2018-12-03#1878087 and http://btcbase.org/log/2018-12-01#1877614

10:56 a111 Logged on 2018-12-01 22:13 danielpbarron: that wouldn't be the worst thing
10:58 BingoBoingo Indeed there are.
11:01 mircea_popescu fresh delivery : --zzz-- 23F sub 40m "How about I bet my boy frend to abduct you and rape you Not even kidding :)"
11:01 mircea_popescu what the FUCK "boyfriend" can some 20yo moron from the us have ? they go on fucking dates, and if he sees me crossing the street once he browns his pants slightly ?
11:02 mircea_popescu but at least this is mildly entertaining idiocy.
11:02 BingoBoingo Sure, the girles might not have much, but they cherish their not that much. The boys hallucinate their optionality out of straight up nothing.
11:03 mircea_popescu not even sure that's it. tbh i have nfi what it is.
11:10 BingoBoingo I'm probably somewhat off, but it seems there is something almost adorable in the way girls will cherish their articles of poverty into a protective insulating bubble. And generally they can get by on their little whatever. They've got the hardware to hold the cognitive dissonance without completely self destructing.
11:10 BingoBoingo The boys... don't have any of that
11:11 BingoBoingo The boys are just slowly dying of nothing in particular and lashing out in ways that carefully avoid the masculine imperative to reshape the world for fun and profit
11:13 BingoBoingo Some boys stumble into the door of the reshaping the world room here, and intensly nope the fuck out
11:15 BingoBoingo Their internal register had already had its redundant bit flipped, Like David in Petrus's story
11:19 BingoBoingo They just want their rock to crawl under and die quietly
11:22 mircea_popescu possibly it's the actual substance of gender identity, "when girls do x i find it tolerable, when bois do it i find it unbearable" "so you're male ?"
11:36 BingoBoingo Kinda like adult woman response to pedophiles
11:41 mircea_popescu what's left is the question of whether they do in fact do the same thing, cuz it dun seem so to me.
11:43 mircea_popescu o btw, in continuation of "romanians are idiots" discussion, asciilifeform ever read http://trilema.com/2010/dusmania-politica-romaneasca/ ?

~ 1 hours 4 minutes ~
12:50 mats i learned today that ciao, from the venetian dialect 'schiavo', means 'i am your slave'
12:51 mats vilches, 'new world gold', p. 27
12:52 mircea_popescu there's a lot of this in 16th century courtly southern yurp behaviour
12:53 mircea_popescu the transylvanian most common greeting ("servus") literally means "servant" and is a contraction of the upper clas overpolite "i am your most humble servant" expression.
12:53 mircea_popescu and by literally i mean, "in latin".
12:54 mircea_popescu survived in english and french up to 1800s or so, but usually in formal private epistolary, "i remain..." etc.
12:54 mats also learned that the arabic word for eunuch (siqlabi) comes from the ethnic label referring to slavs (saqalibi)
12:55 mircea_popescu aha! and in romanian, "harap", literally slave, transliterates "arab".
12:55 mats frankopan, 'the silk roads' (p. 118)
12:58 mats astonished by how early successes of teh venetians and rus, were singularly driven by willingness to sell future generations of their enemies, neighbors, children into captivity, and later, protection rackets
12:58 mats according to frankopan, anyway.
~ 32 minutes ~
13:30 mats to expound on that more, i'm not able to readily wrap my brain around how keeping slaves as property can be a +ev activity with low variance
13:32 mats keeping slaves in usa was problematic in the antebellum period, due to the increasingly common, unpredictable and malignant uprisings
13:39 mats ready availability of farm implements and fertilizers enable armed rebellions
~ 3 hours 24 minutes ~
17:03 mircea_popescu mats they kept blacks.
17:03 mircea_popescu just because ~blacks~ are demographically worthless does not mean slavery is a -ev activity.
17:04 mircea_popescu many things can ONLY be done by slave labour. such as, making a film worth watching. or running a hospital, or a ship at sea, etc.
~ 2 hours 16 minutes ~
19:21 mats is this second bit a political or economic argument
19:21 mats slaves at sea are a physical security nightmare
19:25 mats perhaps a definition of terms is in order - i consider slavery the keeping of humans as property, distinct from slavery in teh manner of the old testament, indentured servitude with timed expiry, 'jubilee'
~ 2 hours 26 minutes ~
21:51 mircea_popescu slavery is "do what you're fucking told to do". the only available alternative is "figure out something for you to do".
21:51 mircea_popescu humans generally work terribly poorly on the 2nd perspective.
21:53 mircea_popescu in any case, the best possible thing you can be is property. the alternative is being a liability.
21:53 mircea_popescu contrary to what overexicted emotards like to pretend, there ~isn't~ a third.
21:55 mircea_popescu http://btcbase.org/log/2018-11-26#1875076 discussion very much apropos. there's either domestic slave, or domestic liability. "wife" "girlfriend" "significant other" bla bla bla sad if transparent attempts at confounding the issue through labels. "oh, it's not directly evident if i mean she's the head of the household or the drain in the balance sheet". "no, actually, i think i can tell".
21:55 a111 Logged on 2018-11-26 23:32 mircea_popescu: to restate in these terms, "two young males, fractional '''girlfriend''' they'd have to pay to get rid of, living with parents, hoping to be one day paid by inca for the useless '''work''' they want to do" etc.
21:56 mircea_popescu when's the last time you ever heard anyone ask a sailor/doctor/starlet/best grip/screenwriter/whatever what ~they~ would want to do ?
~ 1 hours 36 minutes ~
23:32 mats its normal for lieutenants to be asked whether they're looking to go command track, staff; what their top 3 stations are; ncos can volunteer for special billets like recruiting, babysitting privates as instructors, embassy duty, going through various schools under jsoc, ...
23:33 mats doctors are asked to decide what their specialization will be, what grants they are looking to pursue in order to undertake some research
23:34 mats i understand the pedagogical purpose of what you're saying
23:36 mats if you're actually good at what you do, you can have some limited control over decisions that affect you
